The Fender D Bass: Subtle, Yet Powerful

The Fender Deluxe Dimension Bass IV channels a natural and minimal aesthetic -- yet delivers a rich, highly versatile sound. It pushes a punchy and super-articulate tone through its single humbucker. This D Bass' great natural sound is reproduced powerfully with an active onboard preamp that includes a 3-band EQ for dialing in your ideal bass tone.

Comfortable Design

The all-ash body (alder body on black-finish model) is carved into the completely unique Dimension shape -- contoured to be comfortable even in situations of extended play, with a contoured cutaway giving comfortable access all the way to the 21st fret. The graphite-reinforced maple neck has a 9.5-inch radius, and is carved into the much-beloved C-shape profile with a smooth satin finish.

A Voice All Its Own

You're likely to find that the Fender Deluxe Dimension Bass IV's tonal character is quite different from any of Fender's other basses. It gets its power from a single heavy-duty Dimension Bass humbucker. The D Bass' tone is distinctive and packs a decidedly powerful punch.

Active Electronics

The clarity of the Dimension Bass' tone is aided by an 18-volt active onboard preamp, complete with a three-band active EQ accessible next to the main Volume knob. Here, you'll find a wide range of tonal variability by manipulating the Treble, Mid and Bass knobs. The quick-release battery compartment for the active electronics is cleverly located on the rear of the guitar. Without a doubt, you'll find far more tonal control on the Deluxe Dimension IV than you will on many other electric basses.

Decidedly Handsome

The minimal aesthetic of the guitar is offset with the distinctive three-ply black pickguard and knurled chrome control knobs. The bridge is a high-quality Fender Hi-Mass design, with standard open-gear tuners up top. The output jack on the Deluxe Dimension IV is sidemounted. A deluxe gig bag is included.

" a whole new dimension of fender bass"

Overall:
Ok so I was playing an ernie ball stingray which also has a single humbucker with an active 3 band eq, the stingray sounded great but unfortunately I fell into rough financial times and had to sell it. About a month later I saw the video for the dimension bass via an email I received from zzounds, I watched the video and noticed it had pretty much the same electronics offered in the stingray and the Mexican versionoffered by fender at half price, and then in addition to the great price i was quickly approved for the 8 payment, score! When you actually get this bass, the finish looks amazing, much better than the picture, the setup right out of the box was awesome, i only had to do minor intonation. 18 volt preamp is noticeable, the sound is similar to the stingray but still has its own sound, I would say almost like a musicman combined with a p pickup kind of sound, really just excellent. As for the body material, I swear by ash, absolutely my favorite wood to make bass guitar bodies with, combined with the maple neck and maple fretboard and also the graphite reinforcing gives it killer sustain especially with the bridge. I noticed the bridge looks similar to the Leo quan bad ass bridge unlike the smaller bridges that comes stock on most standard fender basses. Overall for the price you can't find too many other basses that will light a match to this thing
